Heh, yeah. I found the imperial units to be very jarring as a Canadian.

"Oh hai. I'm hooked on the drugs. Please stop me from taking more. kthnxbai."

Seriously. You all asked for this.

I got to see this with my kids in Toronto last summer. It was a lot of fun!

Absolutely. People need to be held accountable for these actions now before something truly awful happens.

As someone in the Rails community I deeply sympathize and understand where you're coming from.

If you’re going to leave a comment like this you need to at least outline your thinking as to why you feel they’re different.

This is neat! I’ve been meaning to get back into C. I’ll give this a shake.

Has anyone played with this and SQLite? I have no data, just a hunch, but I’d think this is a recipe for corruption if you’re doing lots of writes.

Many thanks for sharing this. I wasn't aware it existed.

Is this sort of setup tenable on a consumer MBP or similar?

For less than $100!? Do tell, my friend.

Merry Christmas, friends. And a special cheers to everyone that makes this community possible. It’s one of the last bastions of all that is good about this internet.

I'm using this with a Bun project for my testing needs. I spin PGLite at the beginning, throw it all away at the end. It's not as nice as transactionally isolated testing (a la Ruby on Rails, or Elixir), but it's a fine replacement until I have time to replicate it.

I’m curious about your choice of Kysely. I’ve really only used Drizzle. It’s fine but it has some very rough edges around Bun and SQLite.

Have you tried Elysia (https://elysiajs.com/)? Admittedly I'm not using it at scale, but it's quite pleasant.

I'm curious to know what the AI does when it encounters sheet music. Does it do anything intelligible?

> But I still needed background jobs, real-time updates, and two-way communication that just works. Those things are possible in Rails and Laravel, but they take a bit more effort to set up.

I'm pretty sure this isn't true at all with Rails. Out of the box you get Solid Queue (jobs), and Solid Cable (real time messaging).

You need only skim his blog to see why. He’s increasingly hostile to minorities of all sorts.

Beyond that, Mike (author of Sidekiq) is more than welcome to withdrawal his funding as he wishes. That’s how this works.

Storybook is another for me.

This was fun!

If you go to "Settings > Notifications > Desktop meeting detections notifications" you can turn this feature off. I haven't verified if the mic and traffic sniffing is correspondingly turned off though.

I just finished this too! It really brought back my childhood fascination with the man.

Have you had much luck with slots? I have a project using View Components that leverages slots. I've tried migrating to Phlex, but the lack of explicit slot support has been a bit frustrating.

I'd be curious to hear about the politics and behinds the scenes of this project. How did you get buy-in? What were some of the sticking points in getting this project off of the ground? When you mention that many other languages were used to spike the new compiler, were there interesting learnings?

I just wanted to take a moment to highlight both GoodJob and Solid Queue. They're excellent choices, and any RoR folks reading these comments should give them a fair shake.

Is this really true? Something that can be supported by clear evidence? I’ve seen this trotted out many times, but it seems like there are interesting Apache projects:

https://airflow.apache.org/

https://iceberg.apache.org/

https://kafka.apache.org/

https://superset.apache.org/

Composability is the often cited benefit. As an example, I can do the following in Active Record (Ruby):

  class Account < ApplicationRecord
    scope :active, -> { where.not(active_at: nil) }

    belongs_to :user
  end

  class User < ApplicationRecord
    scope :born_before, ->(born_on) { where(birthdate: born_on) }
  end

  active_users_with_birthdays_today = Account.active.joins(:user).merge(User.born_before(Date.today))

Contrived, of course, but it's not hard to see how you can use these sorts of things to build up record sorting, filtering, etc. Doing this by hand wouldn't be very fun.

Can we rename this post to indicate that it’s about Zed?

Is this really necessary given the advances with SQLite in Rails 8? What edge does this have over what’s included these days?

Agreed re asset pipelines. I definitely have Webpacker related scar tissue.

Have you tried either Inertia (https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia-rails) or vite-ruby (https://vite-ruby.netlify.app/)? Both look very promising.
